Medical episode causes collision
Dispatch Guard Dakota Tucker was in his first day on site when he received a call regarding a vehicle collision in the parkade.
Tucker and Security Guard Aaron Evison were the first to respond to the situation. They quickly learned that the victim of the collision was unhurt, but the person who caused the collision was suffering an acute medical episode which had caused the crash.
Nearby patrons were already on the phone with 911, who confirmed that it was fine to break the driver’s side window in order to get it open. Tucker and Evison pulled the person from the vehicle and began CPR.
Paramedics arrived a few minutes later and took over. Reports from the hospital confirmed that the person not only survived but was doing well, which may not have been the case if not for Tucker and Evison’s efforts.
Thank you!
